Details

At the Solan monastery, a special relationship with the land, nature and the world has developed.
Apart from the over-consumerist society, this simple, peasant-based Orthodox monastic community lives primarily off the produce of its garden. There, in the heart of the Gard region, agriculture and food are one. Sowing, watering, weeding, harvesting, peeling, eating, or fasting—every action is sacred, imbued with gratitude.
At the unique crossroads of vegetarianism, fasting, and natural and intuitive eating, the sisters unveil for the first time the recipes of the Solan monastery. Simple, flavorful, and easy to digest, prepared with minimal ingredients, choose the recipes that suit you according to the seasons, your desires, or your needs: eggplant and chickpea moussaka, mushroom tarts, Cypriot tyropita, red lentil lasagna, millet cakes with black trumpet mushrooms, acacia or elderflower fritters, persimmon compote...
More than a cookbook, Faith, the Fork, and the Fork explores our lifestyles and our relationship with nature and food. Joyful simplicity is revealed here in all its beauty and simplicity. This work, written as a legacy of the monastery's secrets, is an invitation to discover the practice of rejoicing, to understand joy in simplicity, and to be guided by the teachings of this inspiring community.
Through these pages, the authors of this book invite you to an immersive experience, where the senses and the soul awaken and joy blossoms in simplicity and harmony.
